I wonder where she’s taking me?
After walking for a while, I arrived in front of a giant door; it was extremely well made.
Was General Putina waiting for me behind that door?
「I brought hi~m, princess Putina~.」
The werebear called out from outside with a carefree voice.
The door opened.
「Please stop calling me princess, aunty. I’m already a full fledged general.」
Putina appeared from behind the door with puffed cheeks. To be honest, she was by no means intimidating. Rather, she was so adorable.
「Oh my, my apologies. Well then, this aunty shall go~」 free(w)ebnovel(.)com
The werebear lady left as she answered. By the looks of it, she had no intention to change the way she called Putina.
「Haah. Whatever… Well, please enter, Your Excellency. Her Highness Polen has been waiting for you.」
Putina urged me to enter the room.
「Eh? Her Highness? The one who called me isn’t you, general Putina?」
Putina shook her head when I asked.
「Nope. It’s Her Highness. Please go inside, nishishishi.」
She was smiling meaningfully.
What the hell did that mean?
I entered the room. The room was huge, and from the furniture inside, it was obvious that someone lived in it.
Wait, maybe this was Polen’s room.
Polen was a princess. Was it really okay for me to be in her room?
But, by the time I realized that, it was already too late.
「Eh? Your Highness?」
When I looked around, I couldn’t find Polen’s figure. 𝙛𝙧𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝓮𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝙢
「YOUR HIGHNESS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! HIS EXCELLENCY HAS ALREADY COME! THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO FEEL EMBARRASSED!」
The moment I heard Putina’s shout, the window curtain shook.
Was Polen hiding in there?
「Are you there, Your Highness? Is something the matter?」
I called out toward the curtain.
Thereupon, a girl came out from behind the curtain.
She wasn’t Polen.
But an extremely beautiful girl.
I ended up getting charmed by her appearance. I could see from her beautiful dress that she had a slender figure. Her skin was as white as snow with a tinge of red in them. I would have never expected to find a beauty comparable to Kuna in Nargol aside from Queen Mona.
Her big, sparkly eyes were looking up to me as if hoping for something.
Who is she? This was the first time I had ever seen her.
「Uhm… Master Kuroki?」
The girl called out to me with an anxious look on her face.
How did she know my name?
I took a closer look at the girl.
The girl had a pair of horns growing from her head. And then, she wore some sort of choker.
「C-COULD IT BE THAT YOU ARE HER HIGHNESS POLEN?! EH?! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH!!!!」
I ended up shouting in shock.
「Yes, it’s Polen, Master Kuroki.」
The girl nodded with slight embarrassment.
「EH? BUT, IT’S AS IF— EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH?!!!!!!」
Against all common sense, Polen who previously looked like an adorable, deformed mascot, transformed into a full fledged beauty. Both the size of her head and the length of her legs had changed too.
IT MUST BE A MUTATION!! SERIOUSLY, JUST WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS HAPPENING HERE?!!
「I just suddenly became like this when I woke up this morning, Master. Not even I know what’s happening.」
Polen spoke with a troubled voice.
「Maybe Your Highness’ condition is similar to the race whose figure can change, the Selkies. This matter really came out of nowhere. It’s hard to tell who you are without your usual odor.」
Putina nodded in agreement as she spoke.
I see now, a race who had two forms such as the Selkies, who had a seal form and a human form, or werebears such as Putina, weren’t that rare in this world.
Since that was the case, Polen’s transformation was a normal occurrence.
But, Polen was a divine being. Since she was the first case in her race, no one had ever noticed this fact.
「Uhm, does his majesty know about this?」
「Nope, no one knows about this yet… No one except for Poh-chan. In fact, the first person I wanted to show this transformation is you, Master.」
Polen looked at me, eyes full of expectation.
「Me?」
「Yes, Master Kuroki. What do you think? Does this appearance suit me?」
I looked at Polen as she said so.
I couldn’t find anything lacking from her current appearance. Her visage resembled that of Mona, in short, she was a real beauty.
「I can’t find anything amiss from your current appearance. You’re truly beautiful, Your highness.」
This was my true feeling. I never expected her to transform into such a beauty.
「For real, beautiful? Not cute?!」
Polen drew near upon hearing my reply.
「Yes, Your Highness. You’re truly beautiful. Even I ended up getting charmed by your beauty for a moment.」
I brushed Pole’s head as I replied so.
Thereupon, she held her cheeks as she smiled happily.
「Nyo…」
「Nyo?」
What’s the matter? She suddenly started acting strange.
「NYOHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! MASTER HAS! MASTER HAS TOLD ME HIMSELF THAT I’M BEAUTIFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUL!!!」
Polen’s tail was swinging vigorously from left to right.
W-Will the room be okay if she rampaged inside?
「U-Uhm, Your Highness?」
「UFUFUFUFUFU!!!」
Polen then looked at me.
「Thank you, Master Kuroki!! Everything is thanks to your assistance!!!」
Polen seized my hands.
STRONG! So her brute strength remains unchanged even after her transformation huh.
But, wait a minute. What did I do for her?
「OKAY! LET’S GO SEE MY DEAR FATHER IN THIS FIGURE!! LET’S GO, POH-CHAN!!」
Polen released my hands, and went to Putina to pick her up.
Has she already recovered?
Polen and Putina headed toward the entrance of the room.
「AH, RIGHT!! I ALMOST FORGET ABOUT IT, MASTER!!」
Polen then turned around toward me right before she stepped out of her room.
「I SHALL BECOME A BEAUTY THAT’LL SURPASS SHISHOU! SO BE PREPARED FOR IT, MASTER! LATER!!」
Polen left the room, pulling Putina along with her as she said so.
Be prepared? For what?
I tilted my head in confusion.
But well, I guess it was a good thing that Polen had finally come out willingly from her room.
I’m glad that I contributed to that.
Was what I thought as I saw the huge, opened gate of her room.
◆Princess of Hell; Polen
I returned to my room after the end of the banquet.
「I’m back to my original appearance…」
I was looking at my own reflection. Reflected in there was the pig-like figure of mine.
Even though Master had praised my beauty, my appearance went back to normal once I saw My Dear Father.
Was it because I felt relieved when I saw My Dear Father?
After that, I couldn’t transform again no matter how much I wished for it. In the end, I was forced to attend the banquet in my usual ugly, pig-like figure.
What a shame.
I recalled my transformed figure.
Honestly, I was speechless when I saw my own appearance for the first time. I was truly beautiful, just like My Dear Mother.
And then, there was also the face that Master made when he saw my transformed figure.
「Nyohahahaha!!」
I danced happily.
「Huhum. Hoho~m. And then, I become a butterfly~?」
I was jumping happily around the room while humming such songs.
「What are you doing, Your Highness?」
「Eh?」
Before I realized, Poh-chan had already stood by my side.
「What kind of strange dance is that? Is that some sort of ceremony to curse someone?」
「Did you… See it?」
「Yes.」
「HAU~!!!!!!!!!」
I ended up rolling in shame on the floor upon realizing that someone had seen such an embarrassing dance.
「Geez. You should’ve told me sooner that you’re right there, Poh-cha~n.」
I tried to raise a protest to Poh-chan.
「You’re the one who told me to come since you want to tidy up the room, Your Highness.」
Ah, she was right.
I did call Poh-chan, and thought that she would come tomorrow.
「You’re right. Actually, I want to dispose of all the pictures I got from Datie. Will you help me to dispose of them, Poh-chan?」
「EH?!!!!!!!!!!!!!」
Poh-chan looked really surprised.
「What’s matter, Your Highness?! Why are you suddenly asking to dispose of your cherished treasures?!!」
「It’s okay, Poh-chan. I’ve changed. That’s why I don’t need those treasures anymore.」
Yes, I’ve changed. The ugly daughter of the Demon King was no more.
I will become a real beauty this time.
Let’s put more effort into transforming into a real beauty.
I was really vexed when the beauties around Alphos-sama cursed me with their all.
And then, I was really happy when Master Kuroki stood up for me.
After seeing Master Kuroki’s true strength, the feeling of wanting to change swelled up in me. That’s why I disposed of everything but one picture.
That picture was the first picture I looked at upon returning to my room.
It was amongst the many pictures that I received from Datie. Yes, this was the only picture I wanted to keep.
I thought so as I looked at the ornamented picture.
It was a picture of the Dark Knight smiling kindly as he held his helmet under his arm.
